The stories told in the Bible are much older than the Bible itself. The Bible is merely a collection of a multitude of different books throughout ancient history all of which date back to the earliest known civilizations on Earth.

This pretty much. None of the stories in the bible are christian in origin, they are all borrowed from religions that existed long before it. A good third of the book simply rehashes the story of Gilgamesh changing where it happened and who it happened to. Sorry Noah, Gil beat you to the great deluge.

Lol you think Gil beat him to it? Are you honestly mentally retarded? It happened at the same time to both of them. Same story, different perspective.

Not in any way, shape, or form. This is the kind of crap that makes it so obvious that you are simply an uninformed troll.

Which is why Judaism is a total ripoff of Zoroastrianism.

The Great Rao may object to that.

I fully support all comparisons between the bible and other forms of fantasy and folklore.

Just point out on the doll where the priest touched you. It's ok, you don't have to be afraid anymore.

Every time a priest rapes a child, an angel gets its wings.

Religious institutions erode their congregations' abilities to think critically (case in point, Illusionz and Abner), feed them a bunch of lies and demand belief under threat of eternal hellfire, but then are not held responsible for the inevitable problems that arise when your perspective of the world is based on fiction.

Religious institutions should be financially liable for the real-world consequences of their fairy tales. Preaching that birth control and condoms are bad to 17% of the world's population, many in areas where HIV is prevalent, without any regard for the accuracy of the statement or the real-world consequences they would cause is defamation against those that sell such things and criminal negligence toward their congregations.

When a drug company sells a product with unforeseen side-affects, they're liable for the consequences, despite having spent ~$1 billion to carefully study each marketed drug according to government regulations.
